They can forget Mars. That one will cost a trillion dollars, possibly more, unless someone wants to take a lot of risk. Good luck with that plan. The Chinese government might be able to afford it, because their citizens have no say about how their tax money is spent. They will have to fix their banks and loss making industries first. That will absorb a few trillion. More, if they keep delaying dealing with the problems.
